Description

Objective: The use of transnasal endoscopy is increasing in health check-ups and ningen dock since it is easy on the patient and safe to perform, and we are using it effectively in our hospital for screening purposes. We have also started using the world’s first transnasal endoscopy examination vehicle in a mobile ningen dock that includes endocopic screening of the upper gastric tract. We report the details in the following.<br>Methods: We dispatched our transnasal endoscopy vehicle and X-ray screening vehicle to business premises and conducted all of the examinations that are usually carried out in ningen dock at our hospital. An average of 12 persons was examined each time the vehicles went out. Staining tests were conducted during transnasal endoscopy but not biopsies. When necessary, biopsies were done at a later date in the hospital. <br>Results: Endoscopic examinations caused no accidental symptoms. Examinees rated the transnasal endoscopy examinations highly for the following reasons: 1) Endoscopy was conducted more safely with no sedative used, 2) It was easy on examinees, they could concentrate on explanations given during it and had a good understanding of what was happening and 3) Transnasal endoscopy was convenient because they could return to work immediately afterwards. <br>Conclusion: We consider the use of a transnasal endoscopy examination vehicle in our mobile ningen dock to be highly useful due to reductions in discomfort, examination time and costs.
